NFF Studies


  • Building: From the Inside Out
    With the goal of supporting the long-term vitality of the Philadelphia dance community, NFF and AEA Consulting completed an analysis of the community's space and capacity-building needs. With nearly 2,000 dancers and a growing reputation for artistic excellence, the dance community's infrastructure is limited and it lacks a hub for congregating and exchanging ideas. The report details the areas that need to be strengthened to develop the positive momentum of recent years.
